Gold-Dipped Candles

Today we’re sharing an incredibly easy DIY to add some glimmer to your Thanksgiving table!

Gold Dipped Candles | Thanksgiving Table | Vicky Barone

Supplies: white candles of any shape or size, painter’s tape, and metallic spray paint.

Directions:
1. Tape off candles with painter’s tape, making sure to also cover the tops of the candles. Create a straight line with the tape around the candle and seal by lightly running your fingernail around the edge of the tape. We put our tape at different heights to create the look above.
2. In a well-ventilated area (preferably outside!), spray paint the bases of the candles according to the directions on the can.
3. Let dry completely before carefully removing the tape.
4. Scatter these around your Thanksgiving table for a little Holiday mood lighting!
